Gah, I wish people would think about things from all angles before forming this kind of opinion. You say it was stupid, but do you have financial data to support this claim? Can you show that their profits fell? Like heck. It's pretty obvious that they make more money now than when they let players play for free.

you put ungodly restrictions on them, x.x
Restrictions make people upgrade, yeah? That's the whole point.

4. And now you want us to pay for the server we build, hmmm, stefan and unix, what exactly will you pay for?
They will pay for 99% of the server costs, all official development costs, any advertising costs, things like that. If you don't want to pay for your server to go online then don't. Nobody's forcing you to.

Also, j/w, will servers already up have to pay too?
Not the good/popular ones.
